    The interesting thing is, that all of a sudden there has been a flurry of interest and orders for some reason. Maybe everyone has decided the economic problems can be ignored.
    Thing is people have to have a little harmless pleasure and enjoyment in life no point thinking about it when ya gone or nearly gone As much as the bearing is a must along the Techie upgrade path, I'd say having an upgrade platter is also a must (The stock one really aint great - tap it and see, even in situe, resonant or what !) - Hence I'm very excited about receiving Mikes ETP Platter Very excited !

    It should be ETP actually Robert. and stands for Engineering Thermo Plastic.
    of which there are many types and grades.

    The big difference between my design and others, is that I use a Brass Centre Boss which is machined with the taper, also I provide two threaded lifting holes for removal.

    Hi Kininigin,
    I have now delivered 11 ETP Platters and will be posting Robert's tomorrow. They are spread about the world much like the Bearings.
    The US. Canada, Asia, the UK and Europe.

    Post 373 above has this link http://webcache.googleusercontent.co...pell=1&ct=clnk to the one I have on the way (Mine is without the label recess) Personally I prefer it's looks much more over the stock platter. It should also sonically be a fair improvement over the ringy stock platter

    Here's my MN platter. It has a label recess and I use a felt mat with a PatheWings 480g weight.
